Ok so why at 48 am i suddenly passionate about personal development ?
Reasons and not in any particular order
I have recently ( last 5 years probably ) for the first time in my life started to struggle with my own mental health . This came as a great surprise , i have always ran straight through sny problems in life and never give a second thought . However at 48 following some personal family tough times that we all face and incredible mental pressure from work ( i run a manufacturing site in England – covid , global supply chain issues , no sales etc etc ) due to mounting pressures , reduced managerial resources / support , constant change of leadership and going in every day to be told its not enough do better with less . To the point i found myself christmas day eating dinner with family but not present in mind , body or soul .for the first time in my life i was overwhelmed , couldnt control my emotions , unhappy , ineffective , drinking a lot of alchohol , angry with loved ones wrongly , 100% negative and genuinely couldnt see a way out
Good news – about 12 months on i feel a lot better , everything isnt perfect , the world /work / life all have the same issues , but i can not only cope but thrive and i am aware of my emotions , why they are happening and how to deal with them . I want to share my journey so far ( which is by no means at a point of totaly fixed and optimised ) which i have found a lot of crap available and some things that really hit home for me . My journey may be of no use to some , if it helps 1 person a little bit then great , but my real goal is to be able to help lots of people just see there is a different way to deal with lifes issues
which are gonna come at you regardless
I am not a fancy businesman trying to make money fast , i have never blogged or made a website and my spelling is crap but please what i have learnt may help , and its not my philosophies or findings, initially more a summary / review of whats out there good and bad and what hit home for me an helped
